Two players are playing a game with $n$ pieces. At each turn, the player takes $2^i$ pieces where $i \geq 0$. The player who takes the last piece will win the game. If the game is played for each $n=1000, 2000, 2011, 3000, 4000$ once, in how many of them the first player can guarantee to win? $\textbf{(A)}\ 4 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 3 \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 2 \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 1 \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ \text{None}$

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with the circumcircle $k$ and incenter $I$. The perpendicular through $I$ in $CI$ intersects segment $[BC]$ in $U$ and $k$ in $V$. In particular $V$ and $A$ are on different sides of $BC$. The parallel line through $U$ to $AI$ intersects $AV$ in $X$. Prove: If $XI$ and $AI$ are perpendicular to each other, then $XI$ intersects segment $[AC]$ in its midpoint $M$. [i](Notation: $[\cdot]$ denotes the line segment.)[/i]

Let $n$ be a positive integer. A finite set of integers is called $n$-divided if there are exactly $n$ ways to partition this set into two subsets with equal sums. For example, the set $\{1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7\}$ is $2$-divided because the only ways to partition it into two subsets with equal sums is by dividing it into $\{1, 3, 4, 5\}$ and $\{6, 7\}$, or $\{1, 5, 7\}$ and $\{3, 4, 6\}$. Find all the integers $n > 0$ for which there exists a $n$-divided set. Proposed by [i]Martin Rakovsky, France[/i]

Let $k$ be a fixed natural number. In the infinite number of real line, each integer is colored with color ..., red, green, blue, red, green, blue, ... and so on. A number of flea settles at first at integer points. On each turn, a flea will jump over the other tick so that the distance $k$ is the original distance. Formally, we may choose $2$ tails $A, B$ that are spaced $n$ and move $A$ to the different side of $B$ so the current distance is $kn$. Some fleas may occupy the same point because we consider the size of fleas very small. Determine all the values of $k$ so that, whatever the initial position of the ticks, we always get a position where all ticks land on the same color.

There are $10001$ students at an university. Some students join together to form several clubs (a student may belong to different clubs). Some clubs join together to form several societies (a club may belong to different societies). There are a total of $k$ societies. Suppose that the following conditions hold: [i]i.)[/i] Each pair of students are in exactly one club. [i]ii.)[/i] For each student and each society, the student is in exactly one club of the society. [i]iii.)[/i] Each club has an odd number of students. In addition, a club with ${2m+1}$ students ($m$ is a positive integer) is in exactly $m$ societies. Find all possible values of $k$.

Two perpendicular chords of a circle, $AM, BN$ , which intersect at point $K$, define on the circle four arcs with pairwise different length, with $AB$ being the smallest of them. We draw the chords $AD, BC$ with $AD // BC$ and $C, D$ different from $N, M$ .
